«El momento más feliz, en cambio…»

[3/4]“El momento más feliz, en cambio, fue cuando me fui ganando mis cosas. Todo torero sueña con triunfar en Madrid, y yo toreé allá y estuve a 5 centímetros de salir por la puerta grande. Salí destrozado, pero me fui dando cuenta por lo que se hablaba en la prensa y por la manera en la que la gente se dirigía a mí que igual había hecho algo muy importante. Otro momento fue el festival aquí de Medellín, que es muy apetecido porque lo torean los mejores. Sebastián Castella, un torero francés, se enfermó y me llamaron a mí, que era un niño de 16 años. Medellín confió en mis capacidades y me mandó a MI a torear. Ese día salí triunfador, y fue muy bonito”.

“The happiest moment, instead, was when I began to gain my own things. Every bull fighter dreams with succeeding in Madrid, and I bullfighted there and was 5 cms away from going out through the big oor. I came out torn to pieces, but I began to realize by what was being said in the media and by the way people treated me that I had still done something very significant. Another moment was when there was the bullfighting festival here in Medellín, which is very famous because it’s where only the best go to bullfight. Sebastián Castella, a French bullfighter, got sick and so they called me, who was 16 years old back then. Medellín trusted me and sent ME to do bullfighting. That day I came out as the winner, and it was very beautiful.”

  • I simply want to say I am beginner to weblog and truly savored your blog site. Almost certainly I’m likely to bookmark your site . You absolutely have beneficial well written articles. Regards for sharing with us your blog site.

  • This is getting a bit more subjective, but I much prefer the Zune Marketplace. The interface is colorful, has more flair, and some cool features like ‘Mixview’ that let you quickly see related albums, songs, or other users related to what you’re listening to. Clicking on one of those will center on that item, and another set of «neighbors» will come into view, allowing you to navigate around exploring by similar artists, songs, or users. Speaking of users, the Zune «Social» is also great fun, letting you find others with shared tastes and becoming friends with them. You then can listen to a playlist created based on an amalgamation of what all your friends are listening to, which is also enjoyable. Those concerned with privacy will be relieved to know you can prevent the public from seeing your personal listening habits if you so choose.
